Kaast V-MILL 510 B VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

This vertical CNC machining center features a 23.6" × 14.6" work table capable of supporting workpieces up to 660 lbs, providing substantial capacity for mid-range production runs. The machine is equipped with a BT 40 spindle taper (CAT 40 optional) running at a standard 8,000 RPM with an optional 10,000 RPM configuration, delivering 7.50 HP at 30-minute rating for consistent cutting performance. The three-axis configuration provides 24" of X-axis travel, 16" of Y-axis travel, and 18" of Z-axis travel, with all axes capable of 394 ipm feed rates and 945 ipm rapid traverse speeds for efficient material removal and positioning. The automatic tool changer accommodates 20 tools, enabling extended production runs without manual tool changes and optimizing overall machining efficiency. Optional features include a rotary table for multi-sided part machining and a fourth axis (U-axis) capability for enhanced versatility. The combination of spindle taper options—BT 40 for metric tooling symmetry and stability at higher speeds, or CAT 40 for imperial compatibility—allows operators to select tooling based on production requirements. With positional accuracy specifications of 0.01 mm across its full working envelope and repeatability of 0.005 mm or better, this machine delivers precision suitable for tool and die work, injection molding components, and aerospace part machining. The robust three-axis travel distances and rapid traverse capabilities make this system ideal for job shops and contract manufacturers requiring flexible, high-speed machining of complex geometries in ferrous and non-ferrous materials.
